"Isn't that she out there on the campus with Mary Wilson?" "It can't be. Mary Wilson and she were never friends." As she spoke, Landis leaned eagerly from the window to get a view of the campus. "It can't be Miss O'Day," she repeated. "She and Mary are not the same style at all." "I think Miss O'Day's swell looking. Don't you?" "She has plenty of money and knows how to dress," was the rejoinder.
He would now stand guard against the onslaught of his own sorrows while keeping up the fight, and this with renewed vigor. He would earn money, too, since this was so necessary, laboring with his hands, if need be; and he would do it all with a wide-open heart. If O'Day's presence was a welcome addition to Kitty's household, it was nothing compared to the effect produced at Kling's.
"Twenty inches by thirty-one no, thirty," she laughed back, tucking her little skirts closer to her shapely limbs so as to clear a tiny table set out with cups and saucers. "You're sure it's thirty?" repeated the painter. "Yes, sir, thirty," and she crept back and laid the rule in O'Day's hand. "Thank you, my dear young lady," bowed the old gnome.
When she had something vital to accomplish she went straight at it, and certainly nothing more vital than her present mission had come her way for weeks. That the news she carried had something to do with O'Day's happiness, she was convinced, or Father Cruse would not have been so insistent.
She played on Nora O'Day's guitar "The Spanish Cavalier," the only selection she could pick out, and sang it in a weak, trembling soprano. Nora both sang and played well. Nancy, in her vivid orange gown, did her best. Her audience, by this time conscious that there was something amiss, could no longer be suppressed. "Oh, say, darling, say, When I'm far away, Some times you may think of me, dear "
Thank you again, Father," and with a pat of his fingers on Kitty's shoulder as he passed, and a good night to John, he left the room on his way to his chamber above. Kitty waited until the sound of O'Day's footsteps told her that he had reached the top of the stairs and then turned to the priest. "Well, what do ye think of him? Have I told ye too much?
On that next day more eyes probably than had been trained in Peep O'Day's direction in all the unremarked and unremarkable days of his life put together were focused upon him.
When the witnesses had testified against him, his attorney brought forth, in turn, the father of each boy, who declared that he had personally given the saloonist permission to sell liquor to his son. By this the Minor Liquor Law was, in effect, circumvented. That each father was the richer by some of O'Day's money was generally supposed. But that was not the issue at hand. The case was dismissed.
"And are there no others, Father Cruse?" The priest, now convinced of a hidden meaning in the insistent tones, grew suddenly grave, and laid his hand on O'Day's knee. "Come and see me some time, and I will tell you.
Every one who writes even a little bit makes an effort to read all the good things along the same lines. That is the only way one can develop talent. I got some excellent ideas from Mrs. O'Day's essays. Is there anything criminal in that? If there is, then we must lock up our histories and reference books when we have any article to prepare for classwork."
